EV, Luxury EV, Luxury EV SUV; What to buy, Why to buy, When to buy. If you are looking for answers to these, you have landed on the right page. We have zeroed down on the BMW iX1 and Volvo C40 recharge, which actually make a lot of practical sense and are priced around the Rs 65 lakh mark. The next best options are the Mercedes EQE SUV, the Audi Q8 e-tron or the BMW iX on the other side of the crore mark. Now let's answer the first question: which of the two is for you?
LET'S LOOK AT THE DESIGN DESIGN COMPARISON
Both the BMW iX1 and Volvo C40 recharge look good and have a very decent road presence. The C40 recharge with its front features is a progression of the XC40 P8's closed-off grille, which is also the now de-facto face for electric Volvos. It steals the show here in terms of road presence. It is also sculpted with precision and is born of electric design. The BMW iX1 kidney grille does look imposing and can be happily mistaken for X3 or X5; in fact, it looks identical to its ICE X1 counterpart. The only distinction is the blue halos around the logo and the 'i' badge on the grille and boot lid. On the other hand, the Volvo C40 & XC40 recharge look the same as the familiar Thor's hammer LED headlights, which get new pixel technology for better illumination and reshaped fog-light housings.
